I get sick and tired of listening to the media anoint Barry Obama. In the latest string of bullshit related to the current housing and financial crisis in the USA a few little facts about our candidates seems to go overlooked by the mainstream .
Fact:
On January 25, 2005 Senate Bill 190 was introduced by Sen. Charles Hagel (R-NE) and co-sponsored by

Respectfully, most of our Republican Senators are wealthy already so what would they need with anything from those agencies? Unfortunately, our Democrats are far behind the curb when it comes to playing the game of Politics. They are learning from the latest Wall Street disaster that staying in the game requires a great deal of trickery and audacity vs integrity and character. Republicans under pressure are the "best" teachers! Watch and learn!

Oops! I clicked on Barry-O and now I get it! The $105k+ amount contributed is not from the Agency itself, but, its employees. The drive-bys, even Fox News already ran this story and "Fact Check.org" validated what I've said.
Sorry! No story here! Try again!

So what about Senate Bill 190, which could have prevented this disaster? Just ignoring that one?

I checked it out. Just another introduction they do in the well of an empty Senate floor with a couple of other witnesses and a camera.
Basically, a photo op! A ploy to get re-elected! It was a good try! I give the Repubs credit for recognizing something needed to be done but, where was the "passion" needed to "Get R Done"?
It's really sad that we "elect" people to "represent" us and they get in there and act like "We The People" don't exist! All they see is $$$$$ and it doesn't matter the party! They're in it for themselves!
